lyrics

I fear the unknown
I grieve when people go
Will the hydrangeas blossom in the April snow?
When I lay down my head
I think of things I could have said
The TV flickers but we close our eyes instead
You ache, I bleed
You mow the lawn, I trim the trees
You keep the bread I make ‘cause there’s always birds to feed
When I’m in a strong mood
I’m unafraid of the simplest truths
We still drive our nails through the darkest wood

No, we’re not the winning kind
We need privacy to speak our minds
Time’s no longer a foaming sea, it’s a luring lake
My skin has changed but I am still the same
I promise I will always look up when you call me by your name

When we ride on our bikes
By the river, side by side
Then we sit down and wait for the ducks to swim by
We get home before the rain
You lie down and I press play
Paul Anka sings and we are one, we are the same

I yearn to go to sleep
‘Cause my mother speaks to me in my dreams
Time’s no longer a foaming sea, it’s a luring lake
My skin has changed but I am still the same
I promise I will always look up when you call me by your name

Now whichever way I head
I end up face to face with death
But I’ll fight until there’s no more blood to shed
When we said no more goodbyes
We’d always be by each other’s side
It was probably a lie but we still try
We still try
